Overview
This bill allows law enforcement to combine the value of stolen property from multiple criminal episodes or transactions that occur within a two-year period. Currently, each theft or crime must be investigated and prosecuted separately. This change would simplify investigations, potentially leading to more effective prosecution of organized theft rings and individuals involved in multiple theft offenses. It also clarifies the application of existing laws regarding the grading of theft crimes and addresses issues related to receiving stolen property and fencing.
